Hey Mates. Here´s some pictures of my ute modifications, hope you like and be useful.The firsts mods was: Mickey Thompson mtz 265 tires, Safary Snorkel, Custom made tent-maxtraxx support and a custom 6 hours made rear bar for these trip :Here´s why you cannot set the gps while driving Some pics of my brother Montero/Pajero

Using The SnorkelUpgrade to ARB Deluxe BullBar, Warm XP9.5 winch with electronic M.O.S.F.E.T control (solenoids free) and KC 130w spottiesRear ARB step bar and first use of the Air Conditioner on the roof tent (the BEST) How to humilliate a 80 series i went up and down the sand dune 8 times, but the 80 none! For these trip i made the bashplates but ran out of time to made the ventsSailing a river to get the ideal spot to sleepAC at tent to sleep freezing you while outside is 38 celsius....it has no price!

By far the best mod I have seen Well done mate. The Triton looks great and you definately get to use it on some great tracks....I think we need to start planning an international forum meet in your back yard

I've seen your a/c unit before it's a beauty But this pic is awesome I reckon...rafting the Tri down the river

The rafting experience was a little bit scary because the ¨raft¨ made of steel was so rusted and it has so many holes that the guys who manage it, has a motor bilge pump to mantain it dry, so if the pump failed there wouldn´t be enough time to reach the border. jajajaja but it was really cool, i mean the adrenaline!

Custom made twin Bash plate. The front one goes from the bull bar to the crossmenber behind the control arm and the rear bash plate goes from these point to the crossmenber at transfer tail. 6mm alloy. But as you can see 6mm are not enough when you have a crappy ome springs (after these trip i´d to put the bash plate again at the sheet bend machine to repair the damage)

After these trip i changed the tires to Dick CepeK Mud Country 285 (more clearance)I love my Warm xp. Always used with no mercy and is perfect but the best is the MOSFET control (trouble free, no solenoids fuc.... when you must need it)

You´re right Snowman, in fact after that trip i modified the rear bash plate, made it shorter so now the rear is bolted not over or below the front, is at the same level, to prevent the damage suffered here.

Hey Sloth. Here som pics of the rear rackIt has lamps and rear spots with switchs in the rack and a 12v outlet for the fridge. Note the maxtrax supports with a butterfly nut to hold it. The tent is attached to the superior bars. You can't see the tent installed there because i've not been use the support since installed the ARB canopy With maxtrax installedThe rack is sitted directly to the tub floor to prevent damages at the tub fenders, and holded by 4 tensioners, also it's 2 foldable hooks at front to secure 4 jerry cans Also the rack has 2 antennas supports

Well..... these is the a/c support that you connect to the tent when you're going to use the a/c and these is the base attached to the tentAfter the support is fitted to the base you have these and them put the a/c unit above. Sorry i couldn't take pics with the tent opened and a/c at the support, but you can see it at the previous pics

Another mod after a trip where i almost damage the waeco fridge with mud at the tub, when arrived to my factory i took of the rear seat, made a plattform in order to get more inside cargo space to load the fridge and bags over the plattform and bags and other stuff under the plattform, besides my daughter recaro seat (the recaro seat is secured by the original 3 points latch system with 3 cargo hooks that i used at the truck bodies, and a angled base with bolts-in rubbers, the same i used to secure the roof tent) also you can see the 12v double socket to connect the fridge and other stuff and a hella flex maplamp. the fridge is secured by a strap whith a galvanized tensioner attached to the plattform

nice work Valerio, although if the local Mr Plod pulled you up and looked over your shoulder at your child sitting in that rear seat, you would end up in the slammer and an impromptu visit from child welfare
